| Eliminate Pain through Better Nutrition and Detoxification  If you have ever experienced chronic pain, this book could be a literal life-saver for you!
As a long-time sufferer of chronic pain, I was surprised this year when I found that following the South Beach diet improved my pain. I also had other symptoms that improved at the same time. I discussed the results with my neurologists, and they congratulated me on my progress but had no idea why I had improved.
When I opened Pain Free in 6 Weeks, the book had instant credibility. Dr. Rogers, who is board certified in environmental medicine, begins by warning readers away from prescription pain relievers because they kill people. Just weeks ago, some of these products began being pulled from the market.
My smile widened when her next point was that most pain is associated with food allergies and other sensitivities to common materials. Eliminate the foods and sources of the sensitivities in question, and Dr. Rogers has found that the pain quickly leaves as well.
My smile became a full one when Dr. Rogers described how she overcame her own pain . . . which was much greater than mine had ever been.
That smile became a positively silly grin when I went on to read the many scientific studies that Dr. Rogers cites in support of her views.
Now, I was convinced that I was reading the real deal.
She feels that 80 percent of the people who read this book will find their solutions in doing 20 percent of what's described. She encourages you to try things in a certain order, and see what happens. She provides clear directions about how to do this in chapter 8 which begins on page 278.
1. Eliminate foods and substances in the nightshade family for 3 months. These foods are described in detail in the book but they include tomatoes, peppers, potatoes, eggplant, potato-based fillers, soy products that use the Monsanto petunia gene add-on, and tobacco. Here is where I got my first clue about why South Beach might be working for me on pain -- I had greatly reduced my consumption of these items, especially potatoes because they are high glycemic.
2. Rebuild your system with CM, cetyl myristoleate, (she describes the better sources of it which many people lack in their diets) between meals with a digestant. I had been working on improving my consumption of fatty acids, so this gave me another clue about why I had improved.
She feels that the vast majority of chronic pain sufferers will be pain free within four months after these two steps.
3. Some people will also need help with nutrient protection, elimination of muscle spasms and bone loss, and she has advice on supplements to help you with those problems. This will be of most value to those with arthritis or rheumatism.
4. Some people will need a major uptake in cell health, and she has a long list of things to use for that purpose.
5. Finally, she gives you many additional ways to detoxify your body and strengthen your immune system, especially by eliminating a leaky gut (which many pain sufferers have).
Once you are through the pain elimination phase, she has a simpler program for maintenance.
If those steps don't do it for you, she has other options for detoxification, rebuilding and maintenance.
She also has directed advice for those with the pain of terminal cancer.
In the text, she also offers the information your doctor will need to understand what you are doing. She can also be contacted for telephone consultations to help you think through how to treat your pain.
May you be truly pain free all the days of your life! January 26, 2005 | | Lasting Relief from Better Health  Sherry A. Rogers, M.D., ABEM, ABFP, FACN, FACAAI, , has done it again. She gives us a wealth of research findings which support her thesis: "Your body was designed to heal and be pain free. . . only when there is a persistent trigger (that the body is reacting to and cannot conquer) does it continue to produce inflammation and pain . . . All pain has a cause, and once you know the cause you have the cure. . . [For some] the solution has been as simple as eliminating a food, correcting a nutrient deficiency, healing the gut, or killing hidden infections. For others it has required getting rid of a lifetime's accumulation of everyday toxic chemicals." She does not spare commercial pain-killers as one of the sources of toxicity. An example of foods to omit: the "nightshade nemesis": Rogers cites studies indicating that 74-95% percent of people with arthritis pain have an allergic reaction to plants of the nightshade family. Eliminating those foods would bring lasting pain relief in a few months. She explores the ramifications of completely staying away from potato, tomato, green pepper, eggplant --and even soy products made from bio-engineered seeds with petunia genes in them. Perhaps you have not heard before about a quick-acting arthritis remedy which requires no prescription, and has no side effects? That would be CM, cetyl myristoleate. Dr. Rogers relates that it works for only a percentage (about 55%) of those who try it, and guides you through the maze of manufacturers and their varying products. She never omits details of how to find, use, and evaluate her suggested remedies. For osteoporosis/cartilage-loss treatment, she gives a discussion of the vitamins, minerals and bovine cartilage products we may need, plus a recipe for old-fashioned bone soup. The coffee enema, which was part of standard medical procedures during most of the 19th century, gets a new lease on life through modern medical understanding and Dr. Rogers' account of her own experience with it. And something new: the FIR sauna, which uses a frequency consonant with human DNA, to give us beneficial sweating without harmful overheating. We get the full treatment: We learn how to ease into sauna treatments, and how to replace the beneficial minerals lost in every sweating experience. Sauna users are not likely to overlook this latter point after being reminded of joggers who have died of unexpected heart attacks, most likely because they had sweated out the magnesium needed for proper heart rhythm. There is something new here about braces for sports injuries, and a pain-reliever for terminal cancer pain which is also a healing agent: cesium chloride. The whole in this case is more than the sum of its parts. "Pain-Free" gives you the keys to creating self-help programs; and the scientific references to persuade your doctor to expand to a more holistic horizon. July 23, 2002 | |
